Make sure you can ssh or sftp into the system without needing a password. I ran across this when I had not set up the certs on my new system.

I'm afraid I cannot do that. I'd like duplicity to interactively ask for a password, like ssh, scp and sftp do.

Just as a point of discussion, why is it that you can't use a cert for backup? Is it a restriction imposed by the remote system, or is there some impression that certs are less secure than passwords?
